HELSINGBORGS superspy Reine Almqvist fears Celtic’s big Bhoys could bully his team out of the Champions League.

The former Sweden international completed his dossier on the Scottish champions for manager Age Hareide after watching the draw at Ross County.

Ahead of tomorrow night’s play-off, first-leg in the Olympia Stadium Almqvist said: “Celtic have more muscles than we have. We have a small team. Celtic will be taller and have more kilogrammes in their side. That is definitely a problem for us.

“I enjoyed the game at Ross County. It was a tough with many tackles and two teams fighting hard to win.

“It was a little bit different to some of the other Celtic games I have seen because there was a lot of aggressive play to go with the skills. But it was what I expected as it was a very tight pitch, there was not much room.

“Celtic were unlucky. They were the better team. Ross County played well but I think if the teams met another 10 times Celtic would win nine.

“I have now seen five of the Celtic games through DVD and in person and they have a system.

“I like a lot of their players and I would say the tie is maybe balanced 60-40 in their favour, but you never know what can happen with underdogs as we like to be that.”

Helsingborgs have a raft of injuries after the 2-1 weekend loss to Elfsborg.

Captain Per Hansson missed the game with illness, Mattias Lindstrom and Erlend Hanstveit are definitely out and Erik Edman, Loret Sadiku and Erik Wahlstedt are also struggling.

But coach Hareide said: “Most of them will return. Per had a cold and he should be fine.”
